The Chicago Times prints reports of crop
conditions collected from over thousand
points in the northwest. Although wheat has
been damaged by the long drouth and intense
ly hot weather in some localities, the general
prospects are very encouraging There is
largely increased acreage, especially in Dl-
kato, the aggregate yield in the northwest
promises to be the largest ever known. The
outlook for corn is very favorable There
will be short crops of timothy and flax, and
the barley crop is also threatened to be par
tial failure.
An Odessa dispatch says: Crops in Pa
dola, Keif and Bessaralia are excellent, while
in Taurida, hherson and around Odessa they
are failures. The drouth, heat and the COL
lapse of the Chicago clique have seriously
affected the crops in the south Of Russia.
